How to Create a Playlist with Hard Rules like iTunes Smart Playlists?

I'm trying to create a match list in BeatTunes that strictly follows specific rules, like "Artist IS XXX" OR "Album Artist IS XXX," similar to how iTunes smart playlists work. I’ve been using the Default Ruleset of matchlist and adding my preferred rules with match quality set to 0%, but it still doesn't include all songs by XXX as I expected.

*Screenshot 1 is the settings
*Screenshot 2 is the generated match list
*Screenshot 3 is what I expect (I made it manually)

Is there a way to create a playlist that strictly adheres to these hard rules? And then I could use it as a base to select songs with match lists? If not, I’d suggest adding this feature in future updates. It would make it much easier for me to move away from iTunes and fully use BeatTunes for my music management.

Thanks in advance for any advice!
